Mail Call! Letters for camp written by Mom and Dad, with a few Skittles tucked in.

Today we dropped Katie, Benjamin, Isaac and Josiah off at “Summer” camp for a week. Thanks to a generous scholarship, all four of them are able to attend Camp Blue Sky for a week. CBS is a great ministry aimed at MK and expat kids here in East Africa. They get to spend six days at a fun, christian camp meeting other kids just like them. Though we had to swallow the lump in our throats when we left, we are thankful that they are able to be ministered to in this way. Grace is happy too -for other reasons. She just wants some peace and quiet in the house, and Mom and Dad all to herself!

On another note, our work permits are close to approval so please keep that in your prayers. Most of our team members are also back in South Sudan now. The Cross family and the Rangteigongs head back in next week. Rose Cross is doing very well and so is Hiakie. Mark is still planning a trip to Doro June 20-July11.

Mark has also been able to make several visits into Kibera (here in Nairobi) and is meeting with some laypastors and ministers there. He has also been invited by a store manager to do some Bible teaching to employees at the local Nakumatt, a surprising opportunity.Stacey continues to meet with “K” from China. Please pray for us that we will faithfully speak and live out the Gospel and encourage those around us – both here in Nairobi and in South Sudan.

You all are so awesome! Hope they all love Camp, its probably great for them to “get away!” Love you all and I think of you and Stephanie every June 5 on your day! Happy Birthday early and a few years late : ) Oh, and I turned 29 in March!! : ) God bless you all and praise the Lord that little Rose is alright!

Happy Birthday Stacey and Mark! I am happy to hear that you all are getting settled in. Looks like the kids are adapting well. I wish my family could be out there with you all because I know in my heart what you are doing matters and its important. God is doing great things here in my family as well, Albert Sr. got baptized on Sunday, ya-hoo, ya-hoo, praise God, only God can do something like that. Thanks for all your prayers along the way. Keep on with your updates, I love reading them. Love you Conard Family…
